coldfusion (CF) 8 ajax features not working
When ever i have added a new site via IIS none of the ajax features in Coldfusion 8 functioned - no response whatsoever. It seems that when i ran the web server connector tool it was not adding a virtual CFIDE directory to my new site in IIS, just a JRUN scripts directory.
To get around this you need to manually add a virtual CFIDE directory with the local path pointing to location of the CFIDE in inetpub (on my server this is C:\inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE and set the directory execute permissions to Scripts and Executables.
